mod_jk is an Apache httpd module designed to proxy and load balance HTTP requests into a Tomcat backend over the [[AJP]] protocol. Functionally, it is similar to mod_proxy. However, being a specialized module,  it only works with Tomcat and it is more efficient with proxying and load balancing than the general purpose mod_proxy.
